City Duma deputies - Helen Nowicka and Mikhail Veselov - held within the walls of Palo campus meeting with students in political science courses 2-4.
State officials worried about the legitimacy of the future of the city parliament - as it turned out, the students already know that the city council elections on vladivostoktsy do not go too willingly.
After the opening speech, which briefly mentioned the work of the Duma and the approaching Day of the local government, the speaker of the Duma Helen Nowicka asked the students to ask questions - to no avail. However, after the replica of Michael Veselov that "Political scientist must be a hunter - a confident and determined, and his modesty does not decorate" , The participants proceeded to dialogue.
The first question set the tone for subsequent interview: Why do I need City Council? Elena Novitsky such directness not confused:
- If you take the governments all over the city, it consists of a head, the city administration, the representative body - the Council and of the Accounts Chamber. It is the complex, which is the local government, and the City Council just represents the interests of the population. It is important to understand that the Duma deputies - are not people who have studied and prepared to be deputies, and those same people of the city that have been selected to help certain groups of the population. So if someone says that the Duma is not necessary, therefore, that man thinks that we should not listen to the interests of the inhabitants of .
However, the students again and again returned to the subject, simply by changing the order of words. Deputies in response told about the results of their work. Senior party member Mikhail Veselov and does invited students to come and participate in round table discussions and meetings that to "the hard way" prochustvovat need Duma.
Young politicians to remain in debt and without thinking MPs suggested a number of ways samopiara. How best to carry on the work of the citizens City Duma? Of course, by social networks and SMS! However, such initiatives have been met cool: an audience of social networks, especially, young people, often voobdsche does not have the right to vote, and if it is - it does not go to the polls and is not interested in the work of the people's representatives.
Also, students did not pass the theme salaries of officials - whether it is large and as a speaker refers to that part of the deputies working for wages (thus doing business), and some - on a voluntary basis.
"Salary not name exactly, but it is of the order of 70000 including taxes" - Said Helen Nowicka. - "I am sure that the majority of MPs would not refuse the basic salary for these deputies' salaries. Whoever was working in the Duma? While it is possible to combine this interesting work with his main occupation, the people working for it, and not for the money."
In addition, in two hours, which have been allocated to communication, the students were interested in what qualities should have a future MPs: professional or human? Some were concerned about, like whether by MPs in the changes taking place, and whether there is a desire to change something. Chairman of the Duma said that almost all of what is now done by the authorities in the city she loves, and she would not change anything.
However, students are not only political scientists worried about professional issues, but also personal. In particular, girls interested in how Elena Viktorovne achieved such heights and how it flowed past life. Helen Nowicka, which is known to work in the Duma headed by one of the maternity hospitals in Vladivostok, advised the female students in the pursuit of a career do not forget about women's happiness - family, husband, healthy children.
